yes, my mistake.

well... there isn't much to do with USB/SCSI/firewire logos :-) (I don't think
these ones can be problematic, AMD/Intel/PowerPC might be)
in any case, lshw-gui can of course operate without the logos

 * I think there is a mixup in the installation section: make install
SBINDIR=/usr/sbin doesn't do anything.
 * shouldn't /usr/sbin be replaced by some %{value} (in .consolehelper)?
 * shouldn't /usr/bin be removed from .desktop launcher?
